Definitly a good move.

>    want to have it in its own process group.

>  * SETPGRP_VOID is what autoconf calls the opposite of SETPGRP_ARGS.

> inflow.c has no maintainer, so if I don't hear any objections before
> saturday july 21st, I'll check this in and remove all traces of
> NEED_POSIX_SETPGID and SETPGRP_ARGS.
